Description

Strategy

Offensive

This building is extremely slow and powerful with long range. Send in some troops or a tank god like Zeus to absorb the shot, then move in and destroy the tower.

Keep weak gods such as Aphrodite far away from this tower as a few shots can easily kill them.

Defensive

Ballistas are very powerful but very slow, which makes them vulnerable. Pair them with a faster tower like the Greek Fire Tower or the Arrow Tower.

The Ballista Tower does the highest damage out of all the towers and can be devastating to enemy gods. But there are many abilities and alliance assists which can summon smaller units such as Hoplites and Skeletons which can draw its fire. Try putting a Cyclops tower or Greek tower to clear out any summoned units so that your Ballista can have a clear shot at the gods.
